If you have any questions please contact me in whatever way is most convenient for you:
Via Etsy's message "conversation" system: click "contact shop" or "message seller" button on any of my shop pages
EMAIL: forestcandlestudio [at!] gmail.com
CALL my studio: 310.963.7545 (leave a voicemail & I'll get back to you asap within 24 hrs)

When I receive your payment I start work on your order, so if you need to make any changes (e.g., item, color, size, style, adornment, quantity) let me know asap so I can accommodate your request if possible.

• If the changes you want result in costing more than you originally paid, after confirming the costs with you I'll invoice you for the balance due.

• If the changes result in costing less than you originally paid, only shop credit (no cash refunds) can be given for these changes to your order.

• If your order is too far along in its progress for changes, I'll let you know what your options are.

**PLEASE NOTE**
AFTER YOUR ORDER HAS BEEN MAILED, no changes can be made. Please see the "returns/exchanges" policies below.

==========RETURNS / EXCHANGES==========

• ONLY DOMESTIC (USA) non-personalized orders are eligible for returns or exchanges & must be authorized by me before you return it (see conditions/instructions below).

• Domestic Custom Orders are approved on a case by case basis.

• PERSONALIZED orders are confirmed with buyer for accuracy before shipping and therefore are final sales and NOT eligible for return, refund or exchange.

• INTERNATIONAL orders are considered custom made, are confirmed with the buyer before shipping, and as such are final sales NOT eligible for return, refund or exchange.

CONDITIONS FOR RETURN / EXCHANGE:

PLEASE NOTE: Because of the amount of work and expense involved in making the candles, CASH REFUNDS are NOT GIVEN for returns / exchanges under any circumstances. Once approved for return and item is received by me, SHOP CREDIT will be GIVEN as stated below.

To qualify for a return or exchange, all 3 of the following conditions must be met:

#1 - If you aren't satisfied with your purchase for any reason, please CONTACT ME WITHIN 3 DAYS of receipt of your package so we can discuss the situation and find a solution.

I'm available via email, Etsy conversation (aka convo) or telephone. My contact info is shown on the business card you received with your order, on my "about page" in my Etsy shop, and at the bottom of each listing in my Etsy shop. You can also click "contact shop owner" on my Etsy shop main page or "message seller" on any of my Etsy shop listing pages.

#2 - You must GET MY PRIOR AUTHORIZATION before returning your candle(s).

As long as the candles are unused and in their original condition (new, resalable), you can return them for a shop credit for the amount you paid minus the original shipping fee. Your shop credit can be used toward any item(s) in my Etsy shop for an immediate exchange/replacement item or on a future purchase.

If your replacement item(s) + its ship fee cost more than your shop credit I'll invoice you for balance due. If it costs less than your shop credit you can use the remaining balance on a future order. No cash refunds will be given for returns or exchanges.

#3 - Buyer must MAIL BACK THE CANDLES TO ME in their original wrapping WITHIN 7 DAYS after date received as shown on USPS tracking/delivery confirmation.

Buyer pays for return shipping & MUST include tracking, delivery confirmation & full value insurance. You may reuse the original shipping box & bubble wrap if desired.

Shop credit or the exchange items of your choice will be made/sent to you asap as soon as I've received the returned items (& any monies due for the new items if applicable). If returned items are received in less than perfect condition, customer is responsible for any loss in value.

=====DAMAGED OR LOST IN MAIL: REFUNDS & REPLACEMENTS=====

Applies to USA & International shipments.

Your candles are mailed to you fully insured. The candles are packaged carefully and it is very rare for them to be damaged in shipping. Please open your package as soon as possible upon receipt because shipping companies have time limits on making claims for damage or loss.

Here are the steps to follow if your item has been received damaged in shipping, or not received within the expected transit time:

1. CONTACT ME RIGHT AWAY

2. If received damaged, give me a DESCRIPTION via Etsy conversation, email or phone.
**IMPORTANT**
DO NOT dispose of damaged item & all packaging during the claims process (otherwise you will waive your insurance coverage & your right to a refund or replacement).

3. PHOTO PROOF IS REQUIRED to file a claim: TAKE PHOTOS of the candle damage & the packaging (wrapping &/or gift box the candle arrived in; also the shipping box exterior, & its interior with bubble wrap inside showing how item was packed). EMAIL the photos to me asap so I can file the claim.

4. I will then file the insurance claim form online with a written statement & photos. After the claim is filed, the insurance company may ask for you to fill out a short form via email verifying the damage or loss. If so, I'll let you know beforehand.

5. Once the insurance claim is filed & they've received the required documents/photos, I will remake your candle(s) right away and ship them to you at no charge, or if you prefer a cash refund of your original amount paid (including ship fee) I will issue it to you as soon as I've received it from the Post Office or Shipsurance (Etsy's package insurance partner).

The claims process can take up to 15 - 30 days (international claims may take longer), so please be patient to hear from me as to what to do with the damaged item(s).
